How to Set up and Scale up with Your Phone System

Your phone system is often the first point of contact for customers — and first impressions count. Whether you’re a growing business or an established brand expanding into new regions, how you handle calls says a lot about your professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail. 

How to Present a Professional Business Image and Scale Up with Your Phone System

Here’s how to use modern telephony features to improve your image, set up and scale up efficiently.

  1. Establish a Local Presence
    If you’re relocating or expanding into a new city or country, a local phone number helps customers feel confident that you’re nearby and invested in their market. It shows awareness of your geography — whether you’re in trades, professional services, or consulting — and makes your business feel accessible.
  2. Create a Professional Greeting
    A personalised greeting message in the local language, dialect, and accent reinforces your authenticity. It tells callers you understand their culture and market, while setting a professional tone for your business from the very first interaction.
  3. Use an Interactive Voice Response (IVR)
    An IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system is included with your phone system and can help your business appear larger and more structured and can increase trust in your brand and company. Calls can be routed to the right department, your accounts team, or even a Virtual Assistant, ensuring customers are handled efficiently without feeling overlooked.
  4. Manage Availability with Smart Presence Features
    Modern phone systems include presence indicators and ‘Do Not Disturb’ options, allowing you to divert calls to a colleague or voicemail seamlessly. With AI-powered transcription, you can even receive voicemail text summaries so that no important message is missed — ideal for busy teams or remote workers.
  5. Stay Connected Anywhere
    Whether you’re in the office, travelling, or working remotely, our cloud-based phone systems allow you to pick up calls from anywhere with an internet connection or GSM. Your business stays available, and your customers experience consistent service.
  6. Respond with Insight
    Our support team help you by uploading your business contacts to your phone system with name and number of company contacts. This means you’ll instantly recognise who’s calling and respond personally. Add notes after calls to build a mini CRM, or integrate your system with full-featured CRMs like HubSpot or Zoho to share leads, deals, and customer insights across your team.

  7. Analyse and Improve Performance
    As your sales or service operation grows, you can record and analyse calls for real-time business intelligence. Affordable AI tools and analytics integrations can help you understand customer sentiment, team performance, and service quality — all key to scaling with confidence.  Read more about Speech Analytics here: https://www.adooa.com/speech-analytics/
  8. Start Small or Scale Up — We’ll Guide You
    Whether you’re just starting out and need a local number and simple IVR, or you’re ready to integrate your phone system with WhatsApp Business, your CRM, or advanced analytics, we can help. Many companies start off with a few users and a welcome message for their IVR (integrated voice response) and we help scale them adding numbers, users and integrating new tech flexibly. Our support engineers train you on how to use and the different devices and your software proficiently. We also aide operations managers on and how you can monitor and manage your phone system internally and suggest the latest configurations and tech to support you.
